    I had a team until I sent them this jokey e-card.




    Fuckers took me seriously and my posts have gone way downhill.

    Just because hes color blind, doesn't mean he sees games in black and white. It probably is just green looks brown and such. So the games look normal to him.

    I'm colour blind (awesome first post)

    It really does not suck as hard as you may think. The only time I've had trouble with it is when I choose colours for things when making animations on my computer. It doesn't affect my gaming at all.

    Hrmmm....this thread has me wondering something.

    If masturbation makes you go blind, then what spurs color-blindness?  I would say it's just flat-out fucking...but I'm not color-blind yet.  =  P

    Or like white on Vinny?
    Maybe THAT'S why they are color-blind.

    Okay, I'm gonna stop right there...because that's gonna get gross...and sticky.

    I would assume so. Why would he lie? Plus I remember him mentioning it a while back  on "On the Spot."

    8% of men are color blind for a given set of colors.  Most often its red and green color blindness that presents.

    1 year old thread is 1 year old.  
     
    Also if you watch the Fable 2 See the future Quicklook he says something about the color use.

    I wonder what it must be like to be colour blind. I imagine you just get used to it, like being short sighted.

    When Jeff watches Red vs Blue - what does he see!

    Is the red I see the same red you see?

    Who is colorblind is Vinny, he had a hell of time picking out the explosive barrels in I think the warhammer QL. Ryan clued him in to look for a bit of yellow. My Dad was colorblind also.. simply inconvenient, it seems many devs do allow for it.

    My guess is...if green and yellow look the same...then it's probably Blue-Yellow colorblindness, a version of dichromy."
    Then thats not soooo bad. It could be worse."
    It would mean that all he sees is yellow and blue. -_- That's pretty shitty.
    Jeff, where are you to confirm things for us when we need you?!

    Trying to figure out if it's green or yellow.
